HOW WE WORK - The Nanny Employment process


Once you’ve decided what type of childcare you need (daily, live in, bilingual etc) you need to register your vacancy online by filling our family registration form. This will submit our T&Cs and your information will be carefully reviewed by a member of our staff who will then contact you directly to discuss your specific requirements.


We at Royal Nannies work on matching basis, so only candidates that completely match your family’s requirements will be shortlisted for you.


Step 1 - OUR INTERVIEW PROCESS

Through in-depth personal interviews, we develop a skill and personality profile for each nanny. We carefully review their nanny employment and childcare education and thoroughly check references for previous nanny jobs, child care experience, qualifications and character.


As part of our screening process, a professional carer registered with Royal Nannies will have:

 

  • Current childcare portfolio showing experience and/or education in the field of child development or nanny qualifications.
  • Minimum of 3 years experience in caring for children.
  • At least two excellent childcare references from the UK.
  • Interview with Royal Nannies prior to referring to families.
  • Most of them will be CRB checked, qualified and hold their First Aid Certification.
  • A nanny registered with us has to be a non smoker and at least 21 years of age.
  • All nannies have to be willing to make a one-year commitment, unless another time frame is specified by the parents.

 

Step 2

We assess each family’s needs and the environment in which their nanny will function. We also advise on scheduling and help define the nanny's role within the family..

 

Step 3

This data is matched to our nanny profiles, and appropriate nannies are short-listed for the family to interview. We help set up interviews, offer selection of interview questions and review the impressions of both family and nannies.

 

Step 4

When a family feels comfortable with a nanny and decides to offer her the position, we can help draft a work agreement/ contract to make sure no key consideration has been overlooked. Once the Nanny has accepted the offer, she is directly employed by the family.

 

Step 5

The final step is our follow-up. After placement of our nanny, we contact both family and our candidate to assess the working relationship. We offer post-placement support so whatever your concerns, we will be here to help you. We also introduce our London nannies to others in her area, creating support groups where they can meet other childminders and share ideas.
